Chapter 1148 The Mysterious Voice
-----
"Hahaha! You guessed right!" he laughed. "Yeah, I harvested these golems for myself, one at a time because they were so damn hard..."
As I heard Zack's anecdotes while making our way inside of the ruins, suddenly...
"You..."
I heard something, a voice.
It was gentle, and faint, I swear I could have almost not heard it if it wasn't for my enhanced senses.
My senses seemed to have translated into my in-game avatar too, something that's beyond physical body can do that.
And then...
"You... Child of..."
That voice... isn't that voice...?
Yes, definitely, that voice, I can immediately recognize it.
"Child of Ether..."
Yeah, it was the voice of the girl, that girl that seemed to be the "embodiment" of the Giant Neutonium Core.
Why was her voice here? In these ruins inside a VR game?
Was that also simulated or...?
"Eleanora, Hendrick, did you hear the same thing?"
I talked to them through telepathy, because they were connected to my body, I could directly transmit my voice inside of them and vice versa.
"No..." said Eleanora. "I was unable to hear a single thing, did something happen?"
"Not at all, master," said Hendrick, walking around the sands on his spider mech.
"Hmmm, I heard the same voice from before, of that girl from the Giant Neutonium Core," I explained. "I believe that the blue crystals outside are Neutonium and that this place is constantly somehow producing it. This place could give us a clue about what happened in the past, or maybe about the true origins of Neutonium."
"The origins of Neutronium! But isn't it an alien?" wondered Eleanora. "Why would it be in this planet if this is Earth in the past?"
"Maybe these ruins brought it here?" wondered Hendrick. "No, this still doesn't make much sense either, how odd... Perhaps history is different than you imagined, master."
"Maybe... After all we've been assuming things so far, there's no confirmation," I nodded. "Let's find that confirmation right now then. Zack, let's advance."Nôv(el)B\\jnn
"So what do you want to do though?" Zack asked. "These ruins are like high level dungeons or late game content, it's really hard to just kill a single golem... You sure you want to go further in? You want golem materials? We could hunt one... or two, but more than that and you're going to run out of weapons, they're super tough."
However, we managed to evade the huge metallic palm, as I quickly pointed my spear at him and charged it with electricity.
This was a basic ability for a real Pilot, but it seemed to not be something many players knew these spears could do.

I swung my spear and sent it flying, as I activated the technique, I quickly attacked the robot with an explosion of thunderbolts, surging one after another with powerful, dexterous attacks.
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
"G-GAAH...!"
The golem muttered something, as if it wanted to say something but it couldn't, the electricity entered its internal circuits and immediately paralyzed it temporarily. It swung its arms clumsily, making it very easy to evade.
As I held it back, I called for backup.
"Now, strike it on the wounds I left!" I roared.
"Got it!"
Eleanora moved at lightning speed with her crimson mech, charging her spear with electricity and piercing the golem through its crevices.
CRAAASH!
A single, piercing strike managed to help her needle-like spear pierce through the golem's core and its circuits, instantly disabling it.
"ERROR... INTERNAL... CORE... DAMAGED..."
It seemed to give out a small alarm before it was fully turned off.
"Well, that wasn't that hard," I said. "Zack, you better help on the next fight though."
Stay tuned to empire
"A-Ah?! I... uh, sure..."
Zack didn't know what to even say.
"Child of Ether..."
That voice again?
"Hurry..."
